About the company
Private TECH Inc., doing business as Cape, is a veteran-owned small disadvantaged business providing secure 5G telecommunications, privacy-preserving cellular solutions, and censorship evasion technologies to defense and intelligence agencies as a prime contractor (75% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor on DARPA programs. Cape is headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, and competes predominantly under total small business set-asides across its prime footprint.
Cape's capability portfolio centers on zero-trust 5G network security, non-attributable cellular communications, air-gapped connectivity, and mobile device solutions engineered for contested and denied environments. The company operates as a nationwide mobile carrier offering Mobile Virtual Network Operator licenses, hardened handsets with dynamic device identifier rotation, and privacy-preserving communication infrastructure. Recent representative work includes a $49.99 million Air Force Sequential SBIR Phase II contract (CAPE-STRATFI, September 2025–September 2029) for secure 5G sidelink connectivity development and commercialization; a $22.1 million Department of Defense Other Transaction Agreement (TRANSPARENT OCEAN, December 2025–December 2027) for privacy-preserving solutions in contested environments; and a $1.8 million DARPA firm fixed-price contract (February 2026–August 2027) for censorship evasion strategies on 5G mobile networks. Cape also holds a GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract (February 2025–February 2030, $475 thousand ceiling) through which it delivered an Air Force delivery order for wireless devices and services ($78 thousand, December 2025).
Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward Air Force and DARPA. The Department of the Air Force anchors 92% of the award count across four small-dollar SBIR/STTR Phase I and Phase II awards and accounts for $50.1 million (66% of combined potential value); DARPA and the Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center (Alliant II OTA customer) collectively represent $23.9 million. Cape holds task-order positions on the Alliant II GWAC (2 task orders) and the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (1 delivery order). Activity accelerated from three awards in 2023 to seven in 2025, with two awards (combined potential value $23.9 million) reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore exposed to recompete. In its subcontractor role, Cape delivers privacy-preserving techniques and mobile carrier capabilities to Booz Allen Hamilton on EMAPS 2 programs (two sub awards, August 2025) and to Systems & Technology Research on DARPA research programs (one sub award, July 2024). NAICS concentration runs across R&D in physical and engineering sciences (6 awards) and wireless telecommunications carrier services (2 awards).
